Dita Von Teese to design lingerie for all sizes

The burlesque dancer is readying an underwear collection in everything from petite to plus-size. She announced the news via Twitter on April 13. Von Teese said she had “just signed a new lingerie deal!!! Glam underpinnings in XS to plus-sizes! Launching in Australia, then going global shortly after. Excited!” The star — who previously starred in a Wonderbra ad — said: “I love lingerie that fits well and is also beautiful, bringing function together with glamour and sensuality… I am especially excited to be designing lingerie with a vast sizing range so that women of all shapes and sizes can have a beautiful, sensual lingerie wardrobe that suits their body type.” Von Teese has signed with Australian company Lime Door Brands, with whom she also intends to design retro-inspired dresses at a later point.
